Frequently Asked Questions

Wedding Expectations was founded in 2006. The team has over 22 years' combined experience in the industry.  

Yes! We would be more than happy to be a part of your day.

The current national average cost of a wedding is $30,000. 

A venue coordinator will handle logistics that involve your venue specifically. Such as vendor parking, general timeline, setup of tables and chairs (if included), and basic needs (lights, temperature, etc). We will help execute ALL of your wedding day details including setup any decor, instruct vendors of timeline events throughout the day, coordinate vendor arrival and departure times, line up wedding party for ceremony, cue musicians, etc.

Our coordination package begins at 3 months before the wedding, so that we are fully aware of all of your details and are adequately prepared for your wedding day. We will be in contact with all of your vendors before the wedding as well, to make sure everyone is on the same page. But also, to relieve you of some of those last-minute details and stress.

A few things set us apart from some other planners. 

• We have been in business for many years and have worked at most venues in the area.  
• We offer in house florals as well, which helps to streamline your entire vision and one less vendor to communicate with. 
• We have a large inventory of decor available to you which again helps makes things easier. 
• We have a large team so you can be assured that your event will be flawless.
• All of our clients have access to software and tools to help with planning.

We can customize a package to suit your needs from the beginning. Or if you chose one package and need to ad on to it later, we can do that! Our services include coordination, help with event design, full service planning, floral design, and much more. 

Every couple has different needs, communication styles, and personalities. In order to better serve you, once you have decided we are the company for you we start with a questionnaire to get to know you a little better. From there we do our best to meet your expectations throughout our time together. We do not put time restraints on our communication with you, we are here to help make your process easier! We encourage you to view our testimonials to see what past couples have to say.

We typically send you a reminder to do so about 2 months before your event, but if there are some things you KNOW you must have, you can reserve them at any time! Our rentals are first come first serve.

We will send an agreement and invoice. You can choose to pay in 3 payments or in full up front, with some additional perks for doing so. Once you sign your agreement and pay your invoice you will receive a welcome packet with next steps, including a call with your planner/coordinator, and access to our planning software program where you can begin!
